Magnificient Nines

These were the Magnificient Nines that made SK Pusat Kemaman proud. They were Standard 6 students selected to boarding schools (SBP).

I remember this picture was published in one Chinese newspaper. My father's colleague saw me in the picture and it was him who told my father about my achievement.

Allow me to introduce them. Standing from left:

Ahmad zaidan Hussein (SDAR) now a Physiotherapist in USM Kota Bharu

Wan Azlan (STAR) now in Finance Klang Valley

Sitting from left:

Shamsiah Abu Bakar (STF) now in a Nursing School in the Middle East somewhere

Aminah Nazifah aka RoyalTlady (STF)

Cikgu Yong Hitam (our dedicated class teacher) now residing in Kg Bukit Kuang

Dr Azizah Harun (STF) a Medical doctor

Wan Esah Harun (STF) now with RISDA HQ

It was true the dedicated work of Chikgu Yong that we are who we are now. He gave us free tuitions and extra classes. He motivated us all to succeed in exam and life.

There was no UPSR then. There was just this special examination to select candidates for entrance to SBP.

Surprising them all, all the nine of us were successful. All of us went to SBP. All of us were successful in life, in their own way.

Thank you SK Pusat Kemaman!
